IOS otool to detect private apis

I am an iOS developer for the first time and cannot find documentation on private apis. So I was looking for some kind of tutorial on how to use otool. The only thing I can find is that I had to load the command line tools using the xcode settings. I also continue to see links to its binding to the .app file, but I don’t know where I can find it and how to use it in the tool. Any links or suggestions?

Private API Discovery

Here I have a question. Why do you want to discover a private advice? Usually this question arises when you plan to send the application to the AppStore. If so, perhaps the iphone-privateapi tag is not suitable for the question. Since this tag is more related to how to use private api (and imply that the application will not be sent to the Appstore)

Private API Documentation

It's hard. No good documentation. Information is scattered and outdated as soon as a new version of iOS is released.
